Christmas!!!








Looks like Tute found his present...or so he thinks! And, here's Zoe thinking she needs to be super cute too!

I can't believe Christmas has already come and gone. It goes so fast. We had a great one though. Sunday, we headed over to Michael's parents for the "Newton Christmas", which includes all his Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins. It was fun, and the food was great! Christmas Eve day, we headed to Horton. My family got the best present that day...ELECTRICTY! They had been out for two weeks from the bad ice storm. They were so excited, they had almost given up on getting it before the holidays! We all headed to my Aunt's house that afternoon and celebrated Christmas with my mom's side. We had fun and got some good presents. That night, we all went to Midnight Mass in Horton...although, it was actually 10pm mass.



On Christmas, my family opened our presents from Santa and from each other. Everyone got lots of good stuff! And, it was great to have Michael there on Christmas morning! After that, we had to get around for lunch. The Rice side came over and we had another large dinner and a gift exchange. It was fun to see everyone.
From Horton, we headed to Michael's sister's house. We opened presents there and then had the 4th large dinner in three days! It was good as the others. We spent some time with the family, then headed back to our house to finally open presents from each other. We had a great Christmas and was glad to see our families!
Michael is excited for all the snow. He has a snow plow on the front of his lawnmower!

Hey, Next time it snows you should send Michael down our way to plow our drive way. I only say that because he clearly enjoys it so much. I can just him now driving down Shawnee Mission Pkwy on that thing. He may need to bring a couple extra cans of gas to make the trip.
